Culinary turism in Krakow

There is no question that the when we talk about culinary tourism, it is Krakow that we have in mind. The reason is simple: the number of restaurants, cafeterias, cafes, pubs, and clubs here, unheard of in other Polish cities, in combination with the naturally high level of competition generated between them, means that here is nowhere in the country where you can eat, drink, and be merry so well and in such charmingly furnished surroundings. This fact was discovered long ago by the residents of Warsaw and businesspeople, who come in droves here on weekends. Krakow`s culinary masters truly prepare extraordinary meals from the cuisines of nearly every culture and nation in the world. This fact is borne out by the numerous recommendations for Krakow restaurants in the prestigious Michelin guide.

We have already mentioned the enormous concentration of such places in the city centre. We particularly recommend discovering them for your own culinary satisfaction which you`ll find just off the main tourist routes, on streets like Slawkowska, sw. Tomasza, sw. Jana, Poselska or Karmelicka. There are also local legends, like the cafeteria “U Pani Stasi” on Mikolajska Street where among the numerous diners professors, journalists, and artists one may rub elbows with people from the front pages of the newspaper. At night outside of Hala Targowa on Grzegorzecka you`ll find the legendary hot kielbasa stand recommended by every guidebook, with an equally exceptional social cross-section of customers. On Plac Nowy (Kazimierz) is “Endzior”, an eating-place known for serving Krakow`s best zapiekanka, or hot cheesy baguettes. The city`s top-quality pubs and clubs garner devoted regular clients and usually a quick look inside is enough to judge whether one suits your tastes. Kazimierz is particularly interesting in this regard, where the proprietors strive to give their establishments a unique flavor, often with a theme, and usually with an out-of-the-ordinary and surprising effect. Concerts are held practically everywhere, as are exhibitions and art happenings, this particular form of tourism which is very popular can extend a day of sightseeing into a very long and pleasant evening…

Research and work on the history of Auschwitz

Research was begun in the mid – 1950. At first publications concentrated on basic historical sources about the camp. Prisoner recollections and topics relating to Auschwitz. One of the first important works. This work revisedand supplemented was published independently in Germany in 1989 and later in Poland (1992) and the United States (1997).
In the latter half of the 1960 and in the 1970 research focused on KL Auschwitz sub-camps the resistance movement at the camp and the camp at Birkenau. At the same time research concentrated on other fields such as the employment of KL Auschwitz prisoners ( Franciszek Piper) and the evacuation liquidation and liberation of the camp.
In later years research shifted to newer fields such as the general history of the camp but also to more specific topics. This research resulted in an abundance of publications ( Auschwitz Death Books) and three independent memorial books dedicated to Poles: “Memorial Book the Transports of Poles from Warsaw to KL Auschwitz 1940-1944″.
In the Memorial Books analysis was carried out not only on the number of transports and camp fatalities but also wherever possible attempts were made to establish the identities of victims a similar approach was adopted in the case of a collective work entitled ” People of Good Will” and two albums a compilation entitled dedicated to Jews from Bedzin and a work by Helena Kubica.
Other important topics researched by Museum historians include the death toll at Kl Auschwitz ( Franciszek Piper) KL Auschwitz escapee reports ( Henryk Swiebocki ). The resistance movement in the camp and it`s vicinity plundering the property of victims (Andrzej Strzelecki). Buna sub-camp and the history of IG Farbenindustrie (Piotr Setkiewicz) criminal medical experiments the historyof specific sections of the camp. The fate of Jews deported from Lodz Ghetto to KL Auschwitz the extermination in Auschwitz of Poles expelled from the Zamosc region in 1942-1943.

Bochnia Salt Mine

The Bochnia Salt Mine tour, established around 1240, is one of the oldest mines in Poland and in of Europe. As a result of mining activities, a labyrinth of galleries and chambers has been created, forming an underground salt world. High concentrations of sodium chloride in the air flowing through the underground cavities ensure that the air in the mine contains only one-tenth of the pollutants present in surface air. Due to the special microclimate of the salt chambers, a spa was established in the Bochnia mine in 1995 and the mine was opened to visitors. The tourist route includes a descent by lift in the Sutoris shaft, a walk along the August longitudinal gallery or the Wernier level and Regis stairs, as well as visits to the Mysiur stables, Dobosz longitudinal gallery and the Spalony shaft, the Chrystian traverse gallery and chamber, the treadmill chamber and the Wazyn traverse gallery, St. Kinga`s Chapel, the Rabsztyn chamber and the Wazyn chamber. The largest cavem – the Wazyn chamber – is 350 metres long and 10 to 12 metres wide. A 140 – metre slide down the ramp along which salt used to be transported is also a major attraction.

Dunajec rafting trip

The Dunajec Gorge is among the greatest tourist attractions in Poland. The Dunajec river, which cuts through the Pieniny Mountains, flows in wide curves within a deep ravine whose rock walss are up to 300 metres high. This extraordinary place is best seen from a raft. Dunajec Rafting trip start from the landing stage at Katy /Sromowce Wyzne/. The 18-kilometre route /the elevation difference is 36 m/ takes two to three hours depending on the water level. It is also possible to go further downriver to Kroscienko /23 km/. Raft trips are organized from April 1 to October 31. Many interesting rock forms – sheer walls, needles and crags – are encountered on the way. The river makes seven sharp turns and forms three loops, all within a distance of 2.5 kilometres as the bird flies. During the trip, rafters entertain tourists with tales about the history and traditions of the region.

Transfers from airport to the City center

Planning your journey to Cracow we should earlier find out whether our airport is serviced by airlines. It sometimes happens that planes don’t land at destined places where we would like to do some sightseeing. If that situation happens, we should earlier provide ourselves with a private driver, who takes us to the appropriate places. People travelling from England to Cracow will have some difficulties in getting to Krakow having only WizzAir Airline to choose from. Therefore the transfer from Katowice airport transfers will be the only option to get to the destined place Krakow.
